Good content, but my favorite part of the article is the anecdote about how Paul started at Google. Putting yourself in a place where you have the opportunity to be lucky makes up some percentage of the total likelihood of being extremely

Doesn't that 5,057 include "other professional degrees"? Further, are these only from accredited schools? Both could greatly reduce the effect of this particular statistic. That said, it is always disheartening to be reminded of the poor

Christopher Hitchens is on my list. This essay was, in my opinion, one of the best I've ever read: http://www.vanityfair.com/culture/features/2010/09/hitchens-... Also, although the topics are fairly silly, Cary Tennis is another author
